| | | | Today 2:30 AM | | | | option 1 ..
9 digit numbers having digit 1-9 in any form will be divisible by 3.
answer will be 0% | | |
| | | | | | Today 1:32 AM | | | | Has to be either option 1 or 2. Not sure which one. Prime numbers always end in an odd number. There are 5 odd numbers between 1 and 9. Suppose the 9 digit number ends with 9. Then, the first 8 digits can be arranged among themselves in 8!ways. Similarly if the number ended in any of the other odd numbers, the other 8 digits could be arranged in 8! ways.
So we have 5*8! such numbers. The total number of 9 digit numbers that can be formed from the digits 1 to 9 used once is 9!.
So considering that ALL the numbers that end in in odd digit are prime numbers, we have the percentage as [(5*8!)/9!]*100 = 55.55%
But definitely, there are going to be several numbers in this group that end with an odd digit and are still composite. So the actual percentage should be much less than 55.55 | | |
| | | | | | Today 12:47 AM | | | | Thanx for the free mock CAT paper... I hope some more papers like this will come soon on testfunda... The paper was really up to the level of original CAT exam... | | |

69 comes as last digit for 13^2 and 96 comes as last digit for 14^2
no. must lie b/w 32 and 99
using vedic maths..when no. is close to 100 its square is 100+2x|x^2,taking x =-13 and -14 we get nos. 87 and 86
when no.is close to 50,its square is 25+x|x^2,now again taking x=-13,-14,13,14 we get nos. 37,36,63 and 64.... | | |
| | | | | | Today 12:36 AM | | | can anyone post the method of solving this question plz...i m not able to solve it..  | | |
| | | | Today 12:32 AM | | | option 2 satisfy the condition for maximum students  | | |
| | | | | | Today 12:30 AM | | | Confusion b/w option 2 and 4 but I will go with 4... | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Today 12:17 AM | | | | ans=10.
option 2.
correct me if i'm wrong. | | |

To participate in debate please click here | The Clerk might not be responsible, and similarly Prime minister Lok sabha speaker MIG aircraft pilot a sweeper or a farmer might also not be responsible but the insolvent and financially worn off individuals, who are almost every common citizen of the world who is driven by financial motives. Thus the dependence is not the professional standing but the ordinariness of one. tapansingh's comment in favor of the topic. To participate in debate please click here | i think u should take this in this sense for discussing any problem all the group members those are involved should seriously give some advice. | | |

Just take a simple case:
A group of people is hired for a particular job with different profession.So one can only give his judgement on that topic if and only if that thing is related to his profession or known to this.
So for me its meaningless.
Concentrate to complete the job rather than pointing out who is the problem. | no u are only concentrating on one fact of job. if we talk general or in broad sense than it appears different. | | |
| | | | Today 12:03 AM | | | | i am in favour of this. as one should involve himself or herself for finding solutions of various problems. | | |

now, thes two remaining digit can b takn as 4X or X4.but none of that ar multiple of 13.so no such condition or number exists.

Proof :
I have solved this puzzle objectively.
Let symbolize Akanksha as A,Bhavika as B & Chitra as C.
And XYZ as 1 & ABC as 0.
Ist CASE : A says true. => A belongs to XYZ party.
Now the statement is "Either I belong or Bhavika belongs to a different party from the other two."
Let break the statement in two sentenses & afterwards we will OR them.
1st part : "I belongs to a different party from the other two" =>
A B C
1 0 0
2nd part : "Bhavika belongs to a different party from the other two."=>
A B C
1 0 1
Now OR 1st Part & 2nd Part
Result
A 1 1 1
B 0 0 0
C 0 1 1
Result => A belongs to XYZ,B belongs to ABC & C belongs to XYZ.
IInd CASE : A says lie => A belongs to ABC party.
Let again break the statement in two sentenses & afterwards we will OR them.
1st part : "I belongs to a different party from the other two" =>
A B C
0 1 1
2nd part : "Bhavika belongs to a different party from the other two."=>
A B C
0 1 0
Now OR 1st Part & 2nd Part
Result
A 0 0 0
B 1 1 1
C 1 0 1
Result => A belongs to ABC,B belongs to XYZ & C belongs to XYZ.
Now from the Results of both CASES we see that in both case Chitra belongs to XYZ party
Hence Proved
Any suggestions or queries are welcome  | Balvinder, ur answer is wrong because of two reasons.
reason 1: in Case 1- you have to do AND operation and not OR
reason 2: case 2 - entire is wrong since A speaks false, Bhas to be with A | | |
